Wipro Technologies, the consulting, system
integration and outsourcing business of Wipro Limited, and Oracle have
announced a new joint development initiative on next-generation Oracle
Fusion Applications.

Wipro is a partner selected by Oracle Product
Development to be involved in this joint development program and has
made several investments around Oracle Fusion Applications including:
embedded product development and strategy initiatives and in-depth
structured product training, the Bangalore, India-based company said.

"Wipro has been at the forefront of technology
innovation and has made significant investments in Oracle Fusion
Applications that help customers reduce adoption effort, lower costs
and speed-up time to market," said Arup Ratan Chakraborti, the
global head of Wipro's Oracle alliance, in a statement. "I am pleased
with how Oracle Fusion Applications are shaping up and are sure to
offer considerable value to clients."

Moreover, Wipro officials said this solution will
benefit customers on a diverse set of applications portfolio, including
Oracle Applications Unlimited products - such as Oracle E-Business
Suite, Oracle PeopleSoft, and Oracle CRM -- with an automated data
migration and synchronization with Oracle Fusion Applications and
enable them to execute end-to-end business processes with embedded
industry-best practices.

"Wipro, as a co-development SI partner has
demonstrated the highest levels of functional application domain and
technological architecture expertise and has gained the deepest
embedded exposure to Oracle Fusion Applications prior to its release,"
said Steve Miranda, senior vice president of applications development
at Oracle, in a statement. "Wipro is uniquely positioned to participate
in Oracle Fusion Applications early adoption client engagements,
including delivering co-existence and upgradeable service offerings,
and best practices implementations."
